This is a championship series, we use your best 6 matches of the year to determine the champion. The order you place determines who goes first at the prize table at our finale match in December. You want to compete in as many matches as you can to give yourself the best chance.

The championship points are already getting interesting, with different winners at each match so far. It’s usually very competitive, I’m sure it will be again this year.

We look forward to seeing everyone on the 28th!
